E.J. Dionne and Norman Ornstein’s “One Nation After Trump”

E.J. DIONNE JR. and NORMAN ORNSTEIN are veteran political watchers having covered many Presidents and Congressional officials over the years. In their new book, One Nation After Trump: A Guide for the Perplexed, the Disillusioned, the Desperate, and the Not-Yet Deported, they argue that American democracy was never supposed to give the nation a president like Donald Trump. In this hour, Marty talks withDionne and Ornsteinabout how Trump was able to exploit the politics of the GOP to win election and how the country can come together around their Charter for American Working Families.

"We are in the same boat. The boat is America. We can make it sink. We can saw it in half. Or we can try and find a way to create a new patriotism and come back together." - Norm Ornstein
